The Grapes of Wrath: Tony-Winning Play Brings Steinbeck's Novel to Life

Adapted from John Steinbeck's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, The Grapes of Wrath is a heart-wrenching and ultimately moving tribute to the indomitable spirit of the American family. WaterTower Theatre brings the timeless story of the Joads and their flight from the devastating Oklahoma Dust Bowl to dramatic life. Fiercely proud, but reduced to poverty by the loss of their farm, Ma and young Tom Joad and their loved ones drive their battered old truck west toward California, hoping to find work and a better life, but instead are struck by the gut-wrenching realities of the Great Depression. Frank Galati's soaring theatrical adaptation won the 1990 Tony Award for Best Play.
